Well, no surprises here. Council has a poor record when it comes to managing projects in terms of budgets and time-frames. Not sure if initial budgets are set artificially low to get them going, poor contractual arrangements or poor management. Glad to see Nobby stepping in here to take control.
Also can't get my head around why the cost on security surveillance falls entirely on ratepayers, as law and order are the role of the Police I would have thought. Is any funding for cameras and monitoring them falling on the Police?
